Classic Revise/Redesign a Classic Mode 2.0

[Perkilator]

First off, I’d like to apologize in advance for double posting in the original thread. I’d also like to apologize if this thread should be closed down again for reasons.

With that out of the way, what character(s)’s Classic Mode would you want to revise? For me:

Joker
-Master and Crazy Hand are bosses in Round 1 to mimic Igor.
-Everything else is the same, except Shadow Kirby isn’t in this.
-Marx is the last boss, fought on Momentos Ω.

Or, you can make a different route design entirely. Examples are in the old thread: https://smashboards.com/threads/redesign-a-classic-mode.479864/

PAC-MAN: Arcade Classics

Stage 1: Donkey Kong on 75m (25m)

Stage 2: Mario & Luigi on Mario Bros. (Mario Bros.)

Stage 3: Little Mac on Boxing Ring (Jogging/Countdown)

Stage 4: Ryu on Suzaku Castle (Ryu Stage Type A)

Stage 5: Sonic on Windy Hill (Emerald Hill Zone)

Stage 6: Simon on Dracula's Castle (Cross Your Heart)

Boss: Dracula (to subtly represent King Galaspark from Galaga Arrangement)

 

[osby]

Greninja:

• He fights with along with

Lucario:

• It fights with on the second round.
• And on the fifth round.

Will add later if anything comes to my mind.

 

[Perkilator]

Know what? I think I'll just reassign some bosses:

Galleom

- (resembling Tatanga)

- (metallic mask)

- (giant machine, not unlike Eggman's)

- (giant machine, not unlike a Mechon)

- (transforms into a giant rocket tank)


Marx

- (because space)

- (looks Earthbound-esque)

- (multiple colors)

- (also because space)

- (Marx is easily as innocent-looking)

- (I stated when he can fight Master Hand in the first post)


Giga Bowser

- (revenge on the endless kidnappings)

- (cause Ganon ain't the only guy who's a boss and a Final Smash)

- (look at his claws)

- (probs just to troll Mario on a grander scale)

- (on 5.2 difficulty or higher, as a homage to Akuma)


Ganon

- (because Ganon has two swords)

- (ain't the first time he's fought against a twisted ruler)

- (surely wouldn't let Ganon run about if the Six Sages weren't around to stop him)


Rathalos

- (bounty hunter, after all)

- (resembling a legendary Pokémon)

- (giant, fire-breathing dragon)


Dracula


- (bat Dracula has wings, and is dark)

- (80's boss)

- (being of darkness)

- (mostly black clothing)

- (magic user)

- (see Ike)

Here are some classic mode revisions i'd make.

For Captain Falcon's route I'd make it look like this

1. at Jungle Japes
2. at Pokemon Stadium
3. and at Regna Ferox
4. at Coliseum
5. at Boxing Ring
6. ( Blood Falcon ) Port Town Aero Drive with items turned off.
Final Battle: followed up by Ganon.

I'd replace the Mii's with Incineroar because fighting the Mii's at a high level is so obnoxious and defeats the point of the route's theme. Close and personal.

I'd let Chrom and Lucina take Ganondorf's previous place because its a throwback to Smash 4's trailer.

i'd replace Roy with Rd Ike because a strong, muscular swordsman would fit the bill better than a 15 year old boyo.

I'd replace Ryu with Blood Falcon because hes Captain Falcon's rival.

I'd replace Bowser with Ganondorf because having the final boss be a character that shares your moveset is more poetic then Bowser whos a random choice. Also fwiw you can sort of imagine Captain Falcon going up against Black Shadow.

For Donkey Kong's route i'd make it a combination of the first DKC and DK Land. Hes teamed with Diddy Kong in all of his battles.

1. Gnawty, Kritter, Klump, Necky ( ) at Jungle Japes
2. Very Gnawty and Really Gnawty ( 2 ) at Kongo Jungle
3. Master Necky ( Giant ) at Kongo Falls
4. Queen B ( ) Garden of Hope Battlefield
5. Giant Clam ( ) at Great Bay
6. Hard Hat ( ) at The Great Cave Offensive
Final Battle followed by a giant at Pirate Ship FD

 

[Deleted member]

Eh fwiw here are some more changes i'd make to some characters routes.

Wario's route

Not only would i completely rearrange Wario's route but also his entire moveset to reflect his real line of games, the Wario Land series.

1. Genie ( ) at Hyrule Castle.

2. Demon Head ( ) at Brinstar Depths FD.

3. Captain Syrup and 3 Pirate Gooms ( and 3 ) at the Kalos League fire section.

4. Rudy the Clown ( giant ) at The Great Cave Offensive FD.

5. The Black Jewel ( ) at Skyworld.

6. The Golden Diva ( giant ) at Mushroomy Kingdom FD.

Final battle. The Shake King ( followed up by Giga Bowser )

All of these characters references the final bosses of all the Main Wario Games.

Megaman X's route:
Same deal with Megaman, i'd replace classic Megaman for Megaman X.

1. Spark Mandrill ( ) at Shadow Moses Island.
2. Armored Armadillo ( ) at Mushroomy Kingdom FD.
3. Storm Eagle ( ) at Moray Towers
4. Sting Chameleon ( ) at Hanenbow.
5. Flame Mammoth ( ) at Wrecking Crew.
6. Vile ( ) at Midgar.

Final battle: Sigma ( as Velgaurder, followed by Galleom. )

Fox's route:
1. at Halberd.
2. at Fountain of Dreams.
3. at Mario Galaxy.
4. at Frigate Orpheon.
5. at Norfair.
6. at Venom FD.

Final battle: Master and Crazy Hand.

I'd make more sense for Fox to go up against space villains rather than innocents like Rosalina and Olimar. For Bowser and Ridley he teams up with Rosalina and Samus respectively.

Falco's route
1. at Venom Battlefield.
2. Goras ( giant ) at Streetpass Quest.
3. Oikonny ( ) at Lylat Cruise.
4. Pigma ( ) at Shadow Moses Island.
5. Leon ( ) at Big Blue
6. at Venom FD.

Final battle: Master and Crazy Hand. ( Andross )

His route doesnt make any sense. Its just going up against dark versions of different characters when he already has plenty of material for his own classic mode route, specifically his manga about why he left Star Fox. He teams up with Fox in the final battle referencing his come back in Star Fox Adventures.

Wolf's route
1. at Mario Galaxy.
2. at Port Town Aero Drive.
3. at Brinstar.
4. Giant at Norfair.
5. at Lylat Cruise.
6. at Corneria FD.
Final battle: Marx ( references the Aperoids )

Wolf's route is a glorified event match rather than a route thats about his character, him being a evil mercenary. Hes teamed up with Fox against Marx.

Rosalina
1. Megaleg ( giant ) at Lylat Cruise.
2. Kamella ( giant and 2 ) at Pirate Ship.
3. Bouldergeist ( Giant and 2 ) at Dracula's Castle.
4. Major Burrow ( ) at Super Happy Tree.
5. Kingfin ( ) at Great Bay.
6. at Halberd.
Final battle: followed up by Giga Bowser.

Her route is about the Galaxy games and not space for the sake of it.

Pit's route
1. Twinbellows ( giant ) at Coliseum
2. at Streetpass Quest.
3. Medusa ( giant ) at Castle Siege lava.
4. Viridi and Cragalanche ( and giant ) at Reset Bomb Forest.
5. Chaos Kin ( ) at Final Destination.
6. Magnus and Gaol followed up by Pseudo Palutena ( ) at Dracula's Castle.
Final Battle: Hades ( followed up by Ganon )

His route is about the key plotpoints of Kid Icarus Uprising. He teams up with Dark pit against The Chaos Kin.

Peach's route
1. and the Koopalings at Princess Peach's Castle.

2. at Hyrule Castle. Shes teamed up with

3. Giant at Norfair. Shes teamed up with to protect the Metroid.

4. at 75 m. Shes teamed up with red who represent Pauline.

5. at Pirate Ship. Shes teamed up with

6. Tatanga ( ) at Mushroomy Kingdom Shes teamed up with

Final Battle: followed up by Giga Bowser. Shes teamed up with

Samus
Replace Master Hand for Marx, keeping consistent with hunting bounties in space.

Ganondorf
Either Dracula, Bowser or Rathalos. All of them are for the sake of variety.

Wii Fit Trainer
Giga Bowser is the final battle

I found a series of boss suggestions by a DeviantArt user called “mrbenio”; here’s that folder: https://www.deviantart.com/mrbenio/art/A-Better-SSBU-Boss-for-Shulk-801043020

Some of these bosses I agree with, others…not so much.

Edit: i accidentally quoted myself and i dont know how to delete this comment lmao.

 

[BowserKing]

I have a few ideas
and would fight Ganon as their final opponent.

's Final Battle would use Brawl's Final Destination Theme.

would fight in Bowser's place. Her final opponent is and then Giga-Bowser.

would fight in Peaches place.

New changes

and fighting Galeom as their final boss

's second round has him and facing , representing one of the Kremlings, with Jungle Level (Brawl) being the theme. Final round sees Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong fight and later Giant King K.Rool, with Gangplank Galleon and Crocodile Cacophony being those themes.

Update: in 's classic mode, the only Pokeball Pokémon and Assist Trophies are , Gray Fox and Issac (who has absences before)

 

[Perkilator]

After playing Banjo's Classic Mode, I was a tad disappointed with how it was executed (basically a retread of the Ice Climbers'). So here's one I was thinking of based off the legacy of the N64: Class of '64

Stage 1: on Spiral Mountain (Main Theme-Banjo - Kazooie)
Stage 2: on Peach's Castle 64 (Main Theme-Super Mario 64)
Stage 3: on Great Bay (Free-for-all; Termina Field)
Stage 4: on Venom (Main Theme-Star Fox 64 (Melee))
Stage 5: on Dream Land 64 (02 Battle)
Stage 6: on Boxing Ring (Free-for-All; Swinger Flinger)
Boss: Ganon

 

[Perkilator]

Know what? I'll think I'll change my earlier post reassigning some bosses:
Giga Bowser:

Ganon:

Galleom:

Marx:

Rathalos:

Dracula:


Master Hand/Crazy Hand:

Crazy Hand only:

 

[fogbadge]

there was plenty of classic route themes that i thought were uninspired and others that just didnt stick to the theme so ill have a go at some of those first off

inkling: stayin' fresh (characters from games with fashion connections)

round 1: Link, great plateau tower, reference to botw's outfits
round 2: pokemon trainer, prism tower, trainer customisation
round 3: horde fight with mii fighters, tomodachi life
round 4: 2x marios (wedding builder), new donk city town hall, odyssey's outfits
round 5: villager and isabelle, tortimer island
round 6: 3x toon links, spirit train, reference to tfh's outfits
round 7: bonus round
round 8: rathalos, you can make outfits from the MH creatures

 

[Perkilator]

Byleth: A New Student? (Fights against the first 5 DLC characters before him)
Stage 1: on (Fódlan Winds)
Stage 2: (team battle w/) on Mementos (Ground Theme - Super Mario Bros. (64))

[Perkilator]

Ganondorf: The Biggest Bad of Them All (fights antagonists instead of protagonists)
Stage 1: on (Airship Theme)
Stage 2: on (Underground Theme (Super Mario Land))
Stage 3: on (Star Wolf (Brawl))
Stage 4: on (Red/Blue Medley)
Stage 5: (free-for-all) on (Vs. Ridley)
Stage 6: on (Crocodile Cacophony)
Boss: , then Giga Bowser

 

[TechPowah]

not to be presumptive, but Classic Mode as it is does not allow DLC opponents except for mirror matches against yourself, so with that in mind
regardless of what the ARMS character's route is, i'd make it a fight between each previous DLC character in release order on their stages
Piranha Plant would probably work best on Kingdom U or Golden Plains
the boss would be best being both hands at once, but i think that might happen for real, so instead i'll say Galleom as he's the closest proxy to Hedlok

 

[Perkilator]

Meta Knight: Wings of Mystery
Stage 1: on Corneria (Star Fox Medley)
Stage 2: (free-for-all) on (Overworld (Kid Icarus))
Stage 3: on Palutena’s Temple Ω (Boss Fight 1 - Kid Icarus: Uprising)
Stage 4: on Arena Ferox (Destiny (Ablaze))
Stage 5: (free-for-all) on Umbra Clock Tower (Multiplayer - Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
Stage 6: (Dark alt.) (Galacta alt.) on (Meta Knight’s Revenge)
Boss: Rathalos

 

[Lu-Gi-Oh!]

Not sure where else to post this, but I thought of a Classic Mode route for Sora if he got in.

The gimmick is that all of the opponent's are based off of various Disney villains. Also, in every match, Sora will have two CPU allies representing Disney heroes, one of which is always Duck Hunt (Donald & Goofy).

1. (Black Alt.)[Pete] on Destiny Islands (Music: Night of Fate)

Allies: [Donald and Goofy], (Black Alt.) [Mickey Mouse]



2. [Jafar] and [Genie] on Gerudo Valley [Agrabah] (Music: Hand in Hand)

Allies: , (White Alt.) [Aladdin]



3. Giant (Purple Alt.) [Ursula], 2x (Blue Alt.) [Flotsam and Jetsam] on (Battlefield) [Atlantica] (Music: Shrouding Dark Cloud (KH3 version))

Allies: , (Red Alt.) [Ariel]



4. Master Hand & Crazy Hand (Regardless of Intensity) [Ice Titan & Lava Titan] on Palutena's Temple (FD) [Olympus] (Music: The Deep End (The Final Phase))

Allies: , (Yellow Alt.) [Hercules]



5. Giant (Classic Green Alt.) [Oogie Boogie], [Lock], (Purple Alt.) [Shock], [Barrel] on Luigi's Mansion [Halloween Town] (Music: Another Side – Battle ver.)

Allies: , (Black Alt.) [Jack Skellington]



6. (Brown Alt.) [Ironically, Captain Hook], Sora (AntiSora Alt.) [AntiSora] on [Neverland] (Music: Fate of the Unknown)

Allies: , [Peter Pan]



Bonus Stage



7. (Black Alt.) [Maleficent] on Find Mii (FD) [Hollow Bastion] (Music: Scherzo di Notte), followed by Giant [Maleficent's Dragon Form], (Music: The Deep End (The Final Phase))

Allies: , [Beast]
